logic_menulistener

← List of SE1 entities

logic_menulistener is a point entity available in SiN Episodes. Allows maps to respond to player inputs in the main menu. It can be used both when playing a map while having the pause menu open and when on the main menu with a map running as the background. It can fire an output if the player either hovers or presses a button of a specific type on the menu. This entity was originally planned for use in the background maps during a normal startup of the game but was cut for unknown reasons, but can be thought of being too annoying for the end user. It can still be enabled in a background map by making sure 'background01' is loaded as it is the only background map with this by default, then type into the console 'sv_cheats 1; ent_fire relay_NewGame enable' which will temporarily enable it until map reloading.

Warning: The hover outputs will trigger constantly while the cursor is touching a button, not just when the mouse first hovers over it.
